Lyrics
Secret society
Reference to a hidden or exclusive group
They been controlling society
Assertion that the society is being manipulated by this secret group
They control
Confirmation of control
They control you and your family
Emphasis on the extent of control over individuals and their families
What you see
Challenging the authenticity of the perceived reality
What you see around you ain't reality
Suggesting that the surroundings are deceptive
It's time to stand up to authority
Encouragement to resist established authority
Get our your guns now its time to roll
Call to action, urging the audience to be prepared
Give back our freedom or we will take control
Demand for the return of freedom, with a warning of potential force
We can't be silenced
Declaration of refusal to be silenced
We talkin violence
Expressing readiness for violent means
We're ready for war
Preparedness for conflict or confrontation
We are not afraid
Assertion of fearlessness
It's time that you obeyed
Request for obedience
We the people
Identification with the collective "we the people"
Good women and men
Acknowledgment of the sacrifices made by both genders for freedom
Died for our freedom
Recognition of individuals who died for freedom
Now you've given it all up
Commentary on the perceived surrender of freedom
Made your home your prison
Metaphorical imprisonment within one's home
Now your watchin the news
Reference to mainstream news and information
Information the give you
Critique of the information provided by authorities
They keep sellin you fear
Accusation of fearmongering and manipulation
Making you their slave
Perception of the audience as slaves
Get our your guns now its time to roll
Reiteration of the call to be prepared for potential conflict
Give back our freedom or we will take control
Reiteration of the demand for the return of freedom
We can't be silenced
Assertion of the collective voice's refusal to be silenced
We talkin violence
Reiteration of willingness to resort to violence if necessary
We're ready for war
Confirmation of preparedness for conflict or confrontation
We are not afraid
Reiteration of fearlessness
It's time that you obeyed
Reiteration of the call for obedience
We the people
Reiteration of identification with "we the people"
They want to tear us apart
Concern about external forces attempting to divide the collective
Hate one another
Warning against hatred and division among the people
Worship the red and blue
Critique of blind allegiance to political affiliations
Teach us to see color
Critique of being taught to focus on racial differences
We don't want violence
Expression of a preference for non-violence despite the warning
But see this as a warning
Warning to understand the true allegiance to the collective
And understand you work for
Reminder of who the authorities ultimately serve
We the people
Reiteration of identification with "we the people"
Get our your guns now its time to roll
Reiteration of the call to be prepared for potential conflict
Give back our freedom or we will take control
Reiteration of the demand for the return of freedom
We can't be silenced
Reiteration of the collective voice's refusal to be silenced
We talkin violence
Reiteration of willingness to resort to violence if necessary
We're ready for war
Confirmation of preparedness for conflict or confrontation
We are not afraid
Reiteration of fearlessness
It's time that you obeyed
Reiteration of the call for obedience
We the people
Final reiteration of identification with "we the people"
